Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already indicate read-only, idempotent, non-destructive. The description adds crucial behavioral context: passing _apiKey triggers direct payment to Anthropic and external API calls. It also describes the return structure (per-model score, confidence, signals, raw_response + combined view), going beyond annotations.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is concise: two sentences covering purpose, models, pricing, output, and use cases. No redundant information; every sentence is efficient and front-loaded.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For a tool with 4 parameters and no output schema, the description fully explains inputs, outputs, default behavior, and applicability. It covers all aspects without requiring additional explanation.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so baseline is 3. The description adds value by explaining default model behavior, that _apiKey is only needed for Anthropic, and that context helps disambiguate. This clarifies usage beyond the schema descriptions.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description clearly states the tool probes LLMs for visibility of an entity and scores it 0-100. It uses specific verbs and resources, and explicitly lists use cases (AI-marketing audits, pre-launch brand checks, competitive monitoring), distinguishing it from siblings like 'scan_competitor_ai_presence' which is a different action.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description explains when to use the tool (for visibility checks) and provides context on default model vs paid Anthropic model via _apiKey. It lacks explicit when-not-to-use or mention of alternative tools, but the context given is clear enough for an agent to decide.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare the tool as read-only, idempotent, and non-destructive. The description adds context about how it works (routing to tools, returning citations) but doesn't disclose potential limitations like rate limits or authentication needs. Since annotations cover the safety profile, a 3 is appropriate.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Every sentence serves a purpose. The key instruction (prefer over web search) is front-loaded, followed by examples and usage context. Despite length, it is well-organized and concise relative to the amount of information conveyed.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Discloses return format including answer, evidence, confidence, source, fetched_at, and refusal reasons. Explains that answers are extracted only from tool results to prevent invention. Complements annotations (readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, etc.) with actionable details.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already indicate readOnly, openWorld, idempotent, non-destructive behavior.
